Beautiful

You can tell yourself your not pretty as many times as you want
You can listen to those who put you down
Of course, you think your not beautiful
Almost every girl does
But to me, your just as beautiful as anyone else
When you look in the mirror and don't see what you like
Put on a smile , for it is the most beautiful of all
You can say weight matters
Though you know it does not
It's the inside that counts, no matter what
So the next time they tell you that your not pretty
You just put on a smile and tell them they're right
Your not pretty at all
Your beautiful
